The ‘deal’ brought forth Johnson’s incandescent guitar technique and a run of 10-inch 78 rpm singles for the Vocalion, Oriole, Conqueror and Perfect labels recorded in San Antonio in 1936 and Dallas in 1937. Those songs have become a cornerstone of Columbia Records’ identity, and will be celebrated on two CENTENNIAL releases from Columbia/Legacy. "squeeze my lemons 'til the juice runs down my leg..."

Joey Terdoslavich Recently called up by the Braves. Any player in any sport with "Terd" or "Turd" in their name automatically makes this list; sophomoric I know but how can you not laugh? Poor bastards.

[8)] Yup, and I also gotta wonder sometimes...what possesses some parents to choose unfortunate names for their children? Did y'all know that mental health professionals say that names like Lethal contribute to psychosis?? I had my first name changed by due process many years ago...but it was not as bad as some I've seen. [:0] The elementary school where I worked has a Tequila and a Riot...how will these kids fare in the years ahead?!? I cannot rightly divulge a full name, but there is a student who's first and last name imply a vagina and an erect penis. [:(]
